The part was marked with a 10 watt q-switched ytterbium fiber laser and 160 mm focal length lens. The 160mm focal length lens has a working distance of 176mm from lens to part. The submitted bottle cap was scanned and then imported in to laser marking software. The part was then surface marked to create bright contrast similar to the sample part sent in. The cycle time for the bottle cap was 4.05 seconds.
